@1:50 perhaps YOU don't know the _translation_ of *Bai Hui* , but informed & educated practitioners understand precisely what it means: * 'Hundred Convergences' * located on the highest and most yang point on the human body, the head - as to *Dan Tian* is a simple translation referred to as: 'Field of Elixir' You are out of your depth, Mr. Hat - on to: Hui Yin 会阴部 yùnyínbù/Hui Yin. This the perineum, which is the area of skin between the genitals and anus, as well as the tissues at the bottom of the pelvic cavity. Now, find yourself another job . . seriously

Ah so glad I found your channel. Have been practicing taiji/bagua and feldenkrais for over 10 years and it's rare to find such quality instruction on UA-cam. Have been a bit lax about my studies lately and and this is motivating. I think what you're describing is also described as 'internal stretching' but correct me if I'm wrong.

finding a proper taichi shoe is still a saga... thanks for the review. I'll check.

That well said. I've been trained the same, different words but everything same. Maybe slight turning of the knee out, screwing slight of the heel out but opposite direction at knee to hip, sinking, relaxing and sinking kua but everything you described is exact training of embracing the tree standing. Very thorough

Thank you for your genuine and no-nonsense sharing. Always good to see people who have done the work and have the skills. And how simple and clearly you lay out the path. It's crazy how little traction this channel has in regards to likes and comments. And of course there's always one or two commenters who come to brag that their glass is fuller, haha. And indeed there's people just 'learning' Tai Chi / ZZ / QG / NG from UA-cam. We can but smile about the wonderful world of people and the platforms like this that bring us together. Anyway I'm just here to give appreciation to what you have to share. Best wishes to you and your students 🙂☯️👍

Cain your video was better than other videos on UA-cam. I studied Tai-Chi for 2 years and the first class was all about the step. My teacher mentioned something you ommitted which is "Grounding yourself", which meant as you take the step, make sure your toes go from pinky to Big toe "completely feeling" the terrain your stepping on, assuring is safe, and grounding yourself as you're about to shift your weight.

Brilliant video, informative, helpful and clear. Thank you for sharing.

These helped me fix my upper-back problems together with regular yoga stretches!

Setting is in too dark place cant see clearly thank you

I enjoyed this video and ordered a pair . I was confused by the "extra" lace the each shoe came with or perhaps it's supposed to have an addditional very long lace at the top of the shoe . Or perhaps it needs to be double tied so the lace isn't touching the ground ? Comfy shoe just have to figure out laces :)

I practice on concrete most of the time, but in the winter I practice on a polished walnut floor. The form of tai chi that I practice has two spins, one heel spin and one on the ball of the foot. If a shoe has a very grippy sole, it makes the spins difficult, especially on the walnut floor. How would you describe the amount of grip of these shoes?

Could you please explain more throughly about the pressure between the meridian points? What would be your palm and what would be your shoulder in your analogy?

Muy buena explicación, al bajar la rodilla y estirar la espalda creas espacio en el cuerpo. Gracias

GM Cain. Are you ever going to do some senior Tai Chi on your utube? So enjoy your program at the senior center. Thanks

Thanks … so easy to understand nothing hidden.

Thank you …… a nice easy to understand explanation ..

打的很棒。

Great to see the form being taught and practised on the right side.

This is excellent. Thanks for sharing this detail on how to properly progress with this practice 👍

Please what merk?thx

Have seen plenty of Aikido on here but not much kung fu.

厲害！太極拳打得非常不錯的阿兜啊，佩服，不知師承是那位高人。

It won't help to see you actually walking before and after the tutorial. It's hard to picture otherwise

These stretches are f@#$ing horrible! Now thanks to you I'll be doing them every day. It's a good reminder just how messed up our nervous systems become. Goddammit ...

trying to compare and contrast this exercise with the "Beginner's Stepping Practice" one. I guess the other one uses Bow stance, and this one uses the cat stance? What do they work on differently?

Really good👍now I can move with confidence. Thank you.

Excellent thanks

This is an excellent and very helpful video. Some of these exercises I do standing up as part of the 'Constant Bear' routine, as well as a full-body 'tapping' practice. I still get the stiff legs a bit, but it's becoming less. My hips also need to open more, so I can't get into a half-lotus position. I use a cushion to help take the pressure off my knees. I certainly feel the benefits of a stronger back and more relaxed taiji practice from doing the sitting meditation work. I get a lot of help from one of my teachers, Steven Moore, via his online classes. He posts the videos on his 'taiji heartwork' UA-cam channel after each session.

When practicing do you think about microcosmic orbit? Governing Vessel filling up, tongue to roof of mouth and emptying through Conception Vessel and into lower dantien and finally emptying out of the ming men? Thanks, excellent video!

Macrotastistic!

These are great exercises. The first one I already practise (although I do it with two breath cycles because of the 4 phases of the movement) and the second one is a new one for me, so I'll be incorporating this into my daily practice. Thank you for this helpful video, which I will definitely share with others.

For me the secret was WIDE.

Thank You, so much, You have taken me from the land of whoop whoop, to the land of reality, and back again when in my postures; very much needed many thanks again. All the best wishes.☯🐭

do u not prefer shoes with toes?

Excellent instruction as always. Thank you for you generosity in sharing. This is definitely something I need to improve on, despite the fact that I was first taught this in 1984. Back then, being a rank beginner, the instruction was more simple and basic. Now, still feeling very much like beginner, it's time to bring more focus to this valuable practice.

Oh my. Cain did you ever do the dvd that you had start right before Covid? Thanks for working with us seniors.

My medial Quad muscle on one leg gets super tense when I do this for a while. Trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.. any suggestions?

Thanks you... Sir

I use this as a guide in between classes. Very helpful. The three views make it easier to catch all the details! Cain is an excellent instructor.

Great video , thanks! This really helps supplement your classroom instruction.

Thank you, very helpful!

Thank you! Very helpful!

Thank you for the in depth review!! :)

Lotsa talking.
